The Creator of Blueberry has died.

Draft · Mar 10, 2012

RIP. Moebius is one of the greatest fantasy artists of all time.

NonexistentK · Mar 10, 2012

all my Panzer Dragoons am cry'ing

Phonomezer · Mar 10, 2012

Noooooooooooooooooooooo

Mother fuck. RIP.

Krev · Mar 10, 2012

Wow, sad news. One of the greats.

Salvor.Hardin · Mar 10, 2012

Still surprised they got him to draw that Halo comic. Absolute legend. RIP.

Fritz · Mar 10, 2012

Farewell, his work stands the test of time,

kruis · Mar 10, 2012

Damn. He was one of the best.

Jb · Mar 10, 2012

Holy shit.

Repose en paix

Edit
I remember loving this exhibition in Paris a few years ago:

Mistouze · Mar 10, 2012

Fever + this = SAD MISTOUZE. His work has made him immortal.

Fallout-NL · Mar 10, 2012

He did that too apparently, no wonder the box looked great.

Pie and Beans · Mar 10, 2012

Legendary artist and inspiration to truly great things such as Nausicaa, Panzer Dragoon and more. Had a good innings, can't be too sad as he's left a very impressionable mark on the world.

Atolm · Mar 10, 2012

One of the greatest artists from recent times, he'll be missed. RIP.

megateto · Mar 10, 2012

He shaped the way I imagine the future.

Ralph and him gone in such a short time. Sad news indeed, RIP.

ElzarTheBam · Mar 10, 2012

RIP Moebus, I loved his work on the Halo graphic novel, please check out his piece titled second sunrise, if you haven't already done so. : (

Switters · Mar 10, 2012

As an artist, he was one of premium quality. I loved his silent Galactus/surfer thing. RIP

Miyazaki and Giraud were friends. Giraud named his daughter Nausicaa.

Woz · Mar 10, 2012

OH FUCK!

Qwomo · Mar 10, 2012

what the fuck god damn it shit

DieNgamers · Mar 10, 2012

Sad news...He really was an inspirational artist.

guidop · Mar 10, 2012

Last year when I was walking to Uni I saw someone that looked exactly like him, does anyone know if he spent time in Australia? How did he die?

ComputerMKII · Mar 10, 2012

Don't be sad, he had a most satisfying career and deserved his rest.

Salut l'artiste.

Damn...

One of the absolute greats.. RIP.

Nitemare1 · Mar 10, 2012

I had this poster on my wall for a very long time!
RIP fine sir!

Ignatz Mouse · Mar 10, 2012

Big loss.

Some images from The Incal

Mabase · Mar 10, 2012

First Ralph McQuarrie, now this.... :_((((

The master of the universe has left.

I am without words.

Dascu · Mar 10, 2012

Fantastic artist. Rest in peace.

Jubern · Mar 10, 2012

Always liked his style, and feel stupid for never knowing/realizing he took a part in Panzer Dragoon, despite being a fan

Repose en paix bonhomme.

kruis · Mar 10, 2012

I love his work as Moebius, but nothing tops his Blueberry comics. Too bad so many US comics fans don't know about the western comics that made him a household name in the European comics scene.

Tizoc · Mar 10, 2012

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I've heard of him and had read XIII Vol. 1. I really like his art. Will try to get the other stuff he worked on.
RiP and thanks for all the great stuff you've done.

GCX · Mar 10, 2012

Moebius and Ralph McQuarrie were both my childhood idols and now they're gone within a week.

RIP.

UrbanRats · Mar 10, 2012

Big loss.

Magni · Mar 10, 2012

I'm not that big of a comics/BD guy but I'm trying to get into the whole scene. I really enjoyed his work, sad to see him he go

Xater · Mar 10, 2012

Shit! Moebius really was ne of the greats. RIP.

Do we know how he died?

Salvor.Hardin · Mar 10, 2012

Frank Quitely's art really reminds me of Giraud's.

Platy · Mar 10, 2012

=(

One of those that you think that are kinda immortals ...

zoukka · Mar 10, 2012

FUCK!

One of those rare celebrity deaths that really make me sad

One of the best comic artists who ever lived.

Gotta read Incal again for his honor.

Jasup · Mar 10, 2012

Farewell Moebius, you will be missed.

Jacobi · Mar 10, 2012

Even the greatest ones die

Rest in Peace

Surely Robert Crumb will escape the clutches of death.

A great loss.

I hope his Métal Hurlant work will some day be reprinted in the US.
